How many Miscers would honestly accept a gay son? srs

[sg1976]

Are all women sloots?
Will I be forever alone?
Would you smash?
Am I a *******?
Would you accept a gay son?


Good luck on actually getting anywhere in life misc...good luck...

id accept him and support him theres a reason why they have such high rates of suicide.

[digitalchi]

Ok to everyone saying they would accept it..would you try for another son. If you're an only child your families name pretty much comes to an end. Wouldn't you want your son to expand the family tree?

[Shobeiri]

It would bother me a little bit inside but as long as he turns out to be a decent human being then i couldnt care less. Would still be my son that i love and would be there for.

[solidus2k3]

don't really care

[digitalchi]

I wouldn't know how I would survive if he was a super camp lad.

Like magic johnson kid...


But if he seemed straight i could learn to live with him, I wouldn't accept his lifestyle but ill love him none the less.
I think this would be especially hard for me, since i was raised as a christian.

hate this attention whore...

[notJamal]

I'd immediately have another son with a different woman to up my chances to having a straight son. Not letting the bloodline end with that homo chit.

[weddingsoup]

i would be extremely disappointed. i'd probably drink myself to death in the basement.

[Yero91]

I'd be fine with it. Now if he's super feminine, dressing like a girl, doing makeup, flamboyant etc, it would be harder to be around that type of thing

[jasonpourne]

Being gay is genetic. That's been proven. If you would "not accept" your son for something that he cannot change and was genetically wired to become, you're a mentally deficient human being.

[rocketfish]

would probably be sad at first, but I would get over it with time but I would NEVER throw him out or disown him.

Its just a shock at first, I have other gay cousins, I'm used to having gay around I guess so I would imagine it could be harder for others that never were around gay people

not calling you out, just stating in general ITT that labeling being gay as some sort of mental disease comparable to schizo is wrong

I disagree with you but maybe my point was too nuanced and I did not articulate. I do not think it is a disease but I also do not think schizophrenia is a "disease" in the medical sense. Psychology is ruled by pseudoscience in my opinion.

If you think of homosexuality as a mental thing different than the "norm" and as a belief in the mind of a person that is caused/triggered by their environment, it can be compared to schizophrenia in that sense.

[ineedadrink]

I'd be very disappointed, but it's not like there's anything I could do about it. So yes, I would accept it. I'll be damned if he's bringing his boyfriend over for Christmas dinner though.

I see.. now I can better see your POV on the issue from the second sentence. And based on that definition/view, it's hard to argue based on the way you framed it.

As for what I know and understand... you can deny psychology (which is fine, there are bits about it that are wonky to me as well) but schizophrenia is not some issue that is purely contrived from words of PhD psych professors. There are real, measurable changes that occur in the brain dealing with your dopamine levels. This isn't some "his dopamine is higher by a bit than it should be and so we classify him as schizo" rather it is noticeably uncontrolled amounts of dopamine. It is an aspect of the brain that is impacted physiologically.

Similarly, homosexuality is not something we can write off as a "disorder" IMO. It is naturally occurring. The big difference here is there is nothing to try and cure because people can and do live happy, healthy lives with homosexuality. Whereas when faced with schizophrenia as a disorder it is very a debilitating pathology. While I can see where you're coming from in that homosexuality strays from what is normal, it is no different than redheads straying from the norm on their genetic make-up... I say that in the sense that there is nothing that needs to be corrected because it is not debilitating to have redheads (or homosexuals) in life.

Further, we see homosexuality all across the animal kingdom so I believe it should hold an even lower rung on the ladder than we currently place it across cultures around the world.

I would be disappointed, but I would accept it and at least raise him to be a "manly" gay, and not some fairy-cake attention princess media gay.

[dan90Xdan]

I don't think there is any problem in a dad being disappointed that his son is gay, just like if a dad had always dreamed of their son being successful at sports and they ended up not liking them. But there is a big difference between being disappointed and not accepting your own son. You don't have to understand why, or even accept them, but I think most men would still love their son and wish him the best.

[m1n2v5]

It's fine as long as he's aesthetic, nothing weird about an aesthetic man that likes other aesthetic men.

[suprabum]

Don't think I would care. It might even be a good thing, because then he could never surpass me when it comes to women.

manlet insecurities detected

[mynameisuntz]

As long he is a respectable and decent person, I would not care what he does in his bedroom. Anyone who does is bizarre to me.

[Schmyzz]

had an old hockey coach who was the meanest guy, and it all turned out later on that his son was gay. could never imagine them talking to each other or even living in the same house.

[MusicProducer]

Couldn't care less. Him being gay doesn't stop me from banging sloots.

Banging sloots is my thing. I love sloots. Banging dudes is his thing; he loves dudes.

I'd probably even ask about his escapades out of curiosity. And in this case I would be the weird one because who wants to get into a detailed discussion about banging people with their dad? (srs)

[dan90Xdan]

There is so much more than a father could have in common with his son than a sexual attraction to women.

[dan90Xdan]

Would suck for sure, dunno exactly what I would do but his power bottom partner ain't ever stepping inside my house that's for sure

It's your house, so that's understandable. But would you go to you son and his partners house for Thanksgiving or Christmas?

[gilesmiles1]

I'll pray for both of you nitwits.

u have like, a million reps for 5k posts?

Your posts are, like, 400 times as good as mine. Wow.

[Unforgiv3n]

Would accept him and love him the same, it is his life and his choices. My job is to teach him and guide him, not to live his life for him. My blood is my blood

[Object]

You sure? lol

[OrNahhh]

Would accept a bi-son whose preference lies in females and will ultimately have serious relationships/marry a female.

Full on gay? Ehhhhhhhhhh....can't say for sure unless it actually happens but that's a toughie.

[MisterVegas91]

I'd be disappointed, but I'm not going to be an ******* and disown my son.

[mommaofobama]

As long as he isn't a limp wristed ******* with a gay voice I wont care. In fact I'd rather have a gay son than a limp wristed ******* with a gay voice who was still straight.
